Paladin of Asgard Chapter 454: 【Lonely Home】

"Why?" Emperor Xia said with his mouth open in disbelief.

"This... I'm afraid you have to ask yourself this." Luo Wei said.

Emperor Xia exploded on the spot, stepped forward and grabbed Luo Wei's collar, and roared frantically: "She is my wife, how could I not love her?! Give me the soul gem, give me!" "

Luo Wei pushed him away: "Husband and wife may not love each other, and the emperor may not necessarily love the queen. This is not a strange thing. Whether you love your wife or not, I think you should know better than anyone else."

Emperor Xia stepped forward to grab Luo Wei again, and shouted hoarsely: "I know that I love her, give me the soul gem! I want the soul gem, give it to me!"

Luo Wei sighed: "I also hope that you can leave Vormir with the soul gem, but this is not up to me. According to the judgment of the soul gem, you just don't love your wife, and the sacrifice is invalid."

Emperor Xia was still unwilling, panting heavily, but unable to speak.

After a while, he turned around and walked to a subject, and said in a deep voice, "Prime Minister Oka, you swore to be loyal to me to the death, right?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Prime Minister Oka bowed his head and said. He looked very old, with gray hair, but he was still in good spirits.

He said without hesitation: "If you need it, I am willing to exchange it for you as a sacrifice for the soul gem."

"No." Emperor Xia vetoed, "I can't sacrifice you, the revival of the empire needs your strength."

Then he moved his eyes to Oka's back: "I want you to sacrifice your son."

Oka's face changed when he heard the words, and he subconsciously protected his son standing behind him: "Your Majesty, this, he...he is still a child!"

Emperor Xia put his hands on his shoulders and looked straight into his eyes: "I know he is your only child. But you should understand that this is for our country and the entire Xia nation The future. I have sacrificed my wife for this, Oka, you said you would swear allegiance to the death, didn’t you~IndoMTL.com~ Prime Minister Oka was silent for a long time.

After a while, he turned and looked at his son: "My child..."

"Father..." The son backed away in horror.

Emperor Xia grabbed him, dragged him to the edge of the cliff, then looked at Prime Minister Oka, gritted his teeth and said: "You do it, push it down."

Prime Minister Oka opened his mouth, walked over slowly, and looked at his son.

"No, father, I don't want to die!" The boy knelt on the ground, begging with tears streaming down his face.

Prime Minister Oka stretched out his hand, but stopped in mid-air, and did not push it towards his son for a long time. His skinny fingers kept trembling, showing his inner struggle.

At the same time, dozens of other people witnessed this scene and couldn't help discussing with each other.

"That child is too poor!"

"I don't think the Prime Minister would do this. This is his only child. He values ​​​​his life more important..."

Facing similar voices, someone in the crowd immediately retorted: "Don't you think the Prime Minister should not sacrifice his children?"

Prime Minister Oka still didn't move, his trembling hands stopped in mid-air.

"What are you hesitating about, my Prime Minister?" Emperor Xia asked, "For the revival of Xia, the people will remember your contribution and sacrifice."

For a long while.

Prime Minister Oka took a long breath, lowered his arms, and shook his head: "Sorry, Your Majesty, I can't do it..."

"What did you say, it can't be done?" Emperor Xia opened his eyes wide.

Prime Minister Oka bowed his head: "Yes. I can't obey your order, please execute for treason."

"You..." The corner of Emperor Xiya's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help clenching his fists.

"Hmph!" He snorted angrily, but did not execute the prime minister.

Emperor Xiya walked into the crowd again, looked left and right, and then pointed out: "My foreign minister, you and your wife are more in love than gold. Now is the time for you to dedicate your life for the country!"

His expression was a little crazy, and his tone was no different from persecution.

Everyone turned their eyes to the foreign minister, and the atmosphere was so quiet that it was hard to breathe. The foreign secretary was silent.

Emperor Xiya became more and more frantic, and stepped forward to grab his clothes: "Damn it, what are you hesitating about? Are you going to sit back and watch the destruction of the Xiya Empire, and let us lose our only chance to turn defeat into victory? Huh?"

"Your Majesty, with all due respect...it is impossible for us to turn the tables." The Foreign Secretary said.

Someone echoed: "Yes, Your Majesty, in fact, we can start from scratch, first conquer a backward civilization, and develop slowly. Isn't the Xiya Empire developed from a small civilization?"

Emperor Xia roared: "As long as you have the soul gem, you can! Sacrifice your wife, or let your wife sacrifice you, for our country!"

"It's your country, not us." A sentence burst out from the crowd.

Although the voice of this sentence is not loud, it is like a stone breaking the sky. Everyone felt that because of the appearance of these words, the atmosphere permeating here had changed from tense to dangerous.

Emperor Xiya was silent for half a second, looked at the subject who said this, and asked coldly: "What did you say?"

Cold sweat was dripping from the man's head, but unexpectedly he did not flinch, but shouted angrily, pointing at him and saying, "We have had enough! You madman, tyrant, wife-killer, you Domination and ambition, no one's life cares!"

Emperor Xiya was stunned for a moment, then looked at the soldiers beside him: "Kill him, kill this traitor!"

The guards were still loyal, obeying orders immediately, ready to raise their guns and shoot.

However, not everyone remained loyal. Before Emperor Xia could finish his sentence, someone shouted: "We can't listen to this tyrant anymore~IndoMTL.com~ He will sacrifice all of us! "

"Kill the tyrant!"

"Kill!"

About half of the people chose to betray Emperor Xiya, and the battle broke out. They were comrades in the same robe just now, and they killed each other in a blink of an eye. Dozens of people fought in a melee.

In addition to the two parties at war, several people chose to leave, ran to the small spaceship not far away, and left Vormir star directly. Among them was the green-skinned Zehuberi.

The battle proceeded very quickly, like a group of eggs fighting each other with stones, which is almost the norm of technological civilization.

It is somewhat surprising that Emperor Xia's fighting power is not weak, and with the help of excellent equipment, he became the last survivor of this battle, even though he was also seriously injured.

Holding the wound on his chest, he shot down the last enemy who had fallen to the ground, then panted and looked around, and suddenly found that he was alone.

On the huge Vormir planet, apart from the statue-like guardian and a few people who escaped by spaceship, he was the only one left.

"Soul gem...Give me the soul gem...I'm going to kill Thanos..." Emperor Xia still didn't give up his obsession, dragged his seriously injured body towards Luo Wei, his eyes were cloudy, and his mouth was ambiguous. Repeatedly.

Feeling that this guy was going to pounce on him, Luo Wei hurriedly took a step, and said at the same time: "I've said it many times, I don't have a soul gem."

Wait.

Thanos?

Luo Wei was stunned for a moment, but suddenly realized that Emperor Xia seemed to have mentioned Thanos just now.

"Thanos destroyed the Xiya Empire?" He turned around and asked, only to find that the Xiya Emperor had disappeared and there was no one behind him.
